Abstract: Radicalization and violent extremism represent significant global challenges, intensified by the use of digital technologies and social media. This study investigated multidimensional approaches to preventing extremism, organized into five key areas: narrative strategies, regional dimensions, gender sensitivity, digital-physical connection, and community engagement. Through a systematic review of qualitative and quantitative studies, effective initiatives for dismantling extremist discourses and promoting social resilience were analyzed. The results highlight the importance of personalized and culturally adapted interventions combined with regional strategies, community collaboration, and the integration of digital technologies with educational approaches. The study concludes that preventing violent extremism requires integrated, inclusive, and ethically grounded solutions capable of addressing the complexities of risk factors associated with radicalization. Furthermore, it proposes the development of interdisciplinary frameworks to align local and global efforts, fostering more robust and sustainable interventions.
